Hi Ya’ll, one of my lovely friends Heather Miller a Perfectly Posh consultant reached out to me and asked if I would consider review some Perfectly Post products, I said yes, being curious about Perfectly Posh since they started blowing up on my feed recently. I was intrigued by their big list of Vegan Products.

Hips don’t lie is a caffeinated body creme that was released with the Perfectly Posh Spring/Summer Catalog. A caffeinated body creme will allegedly tighten and firm the skin to create a smoother overall look. It is designed to be used in targeted areas where someone might have cellulite or other areas you want to tighten up.

Similar to the very popular Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, it shares three very key ingredients, guarana seed extract, Cupuacu butter and Acai.

Guarana is a Amazon Rainforest native plant and is a rich source of caffeine, which is known for its tightening properties. Cupuacu butters contain polyphenols which can counteract free-radicals in your skin, that can prematurely age you. Acai is high in anti-inflammatories.

I find that this absorbs easily into the skin, I got these two samples a little over a month ago and I’ve used it every day since then. While I do find this moisturizes well I don’t notice a huge difference in overall tightness, I think the key with a product like this is consistent long term usage. I am happy with what results I’ve gotten so far and this is a really nice smelling lotion, very fruity.

This lotion is packed with super moisturizing Shea Butter, it helps combat rashes, blemishes, wrinkles and peeling skin. I occasionally get these rough dry patches on my skin that need a really strong lotion to battle away. I find this lotion very similar to the Cosmic Cleanse Scentsations lotions I’ve reviewed before. It is a very buttery consistency and that absorbs quickly into my dry skin.

So far a big ol’ 10/10 on the lotion front, but I’m a sucker for a good lotion so much so that I hoard lotion. The Safflower Seed Oil is good for the regeneration of skin cells.

Absolute Passionfruit smells like a smelted Starburst candy, it is tropical and happy. I must confess I’m not the biggest fan of Coconut Oil despite my dry skin, I find that it clogs my pores which makes sense since it’s comedogenic. I tried this a few different ways, on my skin as a moisturizer in the shower, which I wasn’t the biggest fan of and in my hair concentrated on the ends. I found that this did work best, but do not put it near your roots. It is an oil so it isn’t the easiest to get out. It did add a nice overall shine to my hair and you really don’t need a lot of product. You can also apply it on damp hair right before a blow-out for a little extra shine.

I was initially worried about this shampoo and it affecting my dyed hair, I am very picky about my shampoos and find a lot strip my color even when they say that they won’t. I used this shampoo after a week of not washing my hair and assisting at a beach wedding so it was sufficiently dirty and in need of a deep cleanse. The Sea Salt is the key ingredient in this shampoo to combatting dandruff, soaking up excess oil and added volume.

The texture of this shampoo is interesting, you can feel the coarse sea salt. The shampoo has a very nice herbal minty kind of scent. It is refreshing and soothing. Afterwards my hair felt soft and refreshed. I want to keep testing this for long term effects against my dandruff.

Chamomile Flower Extract is an anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antibacterial, and antiseptic ingredient with potent antioxidant properties. It calms and soothes irritated skin and can be helpful in treating burns, breakouts, minor scars, and inflammation.

I will honestly say the scent of this killed it for me. I REALLY REALLY wish I could replace the scent with something else or no scent. I love what this did for my skin, it absorbed well and kept my skin moisturized. It wasn’t greasy and it didn’t make my makeup apply weird. I just couldn’t get over the scent, it was just too overwhelming for a face product.

The Aloe Vera helps restore moisture and reduces flaking from dry or damaged skin. It is high in antioxidants which can help reduce skin damage.

A little definitely goes a long way with this product. A little pea-sized amount is all you need to cover your whole face. It exfoliates gently and didn’t leave my skin feeling dry or overly scrubbed. My pores felt open and clean. I’m always worried about exfoliators overly cleaning my skin to the point of irritation, but this didn’t do that all.

This mask focuses on anti-aging and tightening. Caffeine & Green Tea are two of the key ingredients. Green Tea is a collagen stimulating and anti-inflammatory ingredient. Same as with the Caffeine Body Creme, Caffeine is being used here for tightening. It can also reduce redness and works as an antioxidant and prevent against sun damage.

I really like this mask, I think when I finish the masks I have now I’m going to get a full-size of this one.

I’ve been using this 2-3 times a week for the last couple of weeks to great results. I just love the Apricot scent, light fruity scents are some of my absolute favorites. I use about a nickel sized amount to a quarter depending on how dry my skin is to get a good cover on my face. It takes about 10 minutes to “dry” down on our skin to the point that it doesn’t feel wet. It is nice so I don’t feel like it is all wiping away in my sleep. When I wake up I wash it off and run through the rest of my skincare routine, it leaves my skin feeling moisturized and hydrated. It works so beautifully with my Stratia Liquid Gold.
